What if the roots of your faith and government were intertwined with ancient pagan practices? Brandon Kroll, host of the Manna Daily Podcast, joins Craig for a mind-bending exploration of faith, government, and hidden truths.
This episode is packed with thought-provoking ideas that might ruffle some feathers, but isn't that what we're here for? To challenge the status quo and rediscover what it truly means to follow Christ in a world that often pulls us in the opposite direction.
Brandon shares his journey as a contrarian, questioning authority and seeking deeper truths. His experiences during the 2020 election and the pandemic led him to scrutinize traditional practices and launch his own podcast.
Here are 4 key takeaways from our conversation with Brandon:
- Traditions of Men: Brandon unpacks the biblical phrase "traditions of men" and its connection to Kabbalah, revealing surprising links to modern practices.
- Government as Mind Control: We explore the etymology of "government" and its implications for how we view authority and power structures.
- Occult Influences: Uncover the connections between modern institutions and ancient practices, from Kabbalah to the symbolism of Christmas trees.
- Christian Identity: Brandon's bold assertion that one cannot be both a patriot and a saint challenges listeners to reconsider their loyalties.
This episode is a wake-up call for Christians seeking a deeper understanding of their faith and its relationship to worldly powers. Brandon's insights on occult influences and biblical interpretation will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew.
Don't miss this one, folks. It's a journey down the rabbit hole that just might change how you view your faith and the world around you. Whether you agree or disagree, this conversation is sure to spark deep reflection and discussion.
